What is the name of your state? Tennessee
My fiance has two kids with his ex-girlfriend, never married. Isaiah,5,just started kindergarden and Nia,2,is in daycare. We are starting a life together and want everything done legally. He has written up a petition for joint custody but she has not responded to it so we will have to go to court. Now she has mentioned that she wants custody of the kids and to move out of state. She stated that she wants to go to part time work and take Nia out of daycare so she can receive child support from their dad. Dad has taken care of both kids finacially since birth. What rights does dad have and is there a chance of mom getting custody and dad paying child support???
